CAS is All I Can Do


Happy Friday, peeps!  Yay, the weekend at last and maybe some sunny weather!  My mojo has taken a vacation and all I can seem to come up with lately are CAS cards...not that that's bad, but I just can't seem to get into making more complex creations!  SO, I have two cards today, the first is the card I made for all the men's birthdays at my church for the month of April, and I used the sketch from FMS:


I was sad that Guy Greetings was being retired; it was my go-to masculine set!  I love the images and the font, so I decided to ink it up in some Tranquil Tide ink to coordinate with the True Gentlemen DSP:


It was easy to fussy-cut the antique car:


and since I was using my Stamparatus, I was able to stamp the sentiments fairly quickly with the moveable plate:


I had six to do, and it was a little "wobbly" by the time I did the sixth one, but it still worked fine!  I just had to cut them into strips!

My next card is for the CAS(E) this Sketch sketch:


At church I saw a lady carrying a black polka-dotted tote bag with a strap that I can only describe as Crisp Cantaloupe! It was so cute! Since we don't have that color any longer, I used Peekaboo Peach along with some DSP from the Pick A Pattern line to make a congrats card to a new recruit:


I stamped the horizontal piece with the retiring Brushstrokes background stamp on the diagonal for a little additional interest.  I hope the lighter orange shade doesn't make this look too "Halloween-ish", LOL!  I fussy-cut the flower from Painted Harvest and added a sentiment from Colorful Seasons:

  

And on the inside, a sentiment from Beautiful Bouquet and another floral image:


Thanks for popping in today!

I don't have any Cassidy pictures today, but I thought I would share a picture of my dad holding his newest great-grandson, Sawyer, on Easter:


He was quite content to sleep in Great-granddaddy's arms!!  And notice the EAGLES green pacifier, LOL!!  Enjoy your day and be blessed!
